"THE CUHSE OP MONEY."
Frank J. Gould, the publication
of whose domestic unhapplness has
added to the more or less sensa
tional gossip in which the family of
the late Jay Gould has become in
volved, did not go into particulars,
but he bluntly declared that his
trouble was "the curse of money."
"If I had been a poor chap," he
said, "I might have escaped it all."
And so he might. And yet there Is
no fundamental reason why young
Gould having been born rich, was
doomed to matrimonial misery or
any other form of unhapplness that
might not have befallen him if he
had been obliged to earn his living,
it will be admitted, however, that
the peace and happiness of tho very
rich as a class, are in peculiar jeo
pardy. Witness the entanglements
and disagreements and the scandals
that have affected many of the
wealthy families of this country,
more especially in Now York. Pitts
burg and Philadelphia.
Tho Kansas City Star says:
The miserable rich are probably
not looking for sympathy or advice
from the comfortable poor or the
happy possessors of fair incomes.
But the secret of worldly content
must bo found among tlioso who
have definite occupations, bo they
poor or rich or between these ex
tremes. It is an axiom that the
thing possessed without effort brings
less enjoyment than tho thing attain
ed by work and purpose. Thus a
fortune unearned usually brings less
happiness than a fortune honestly
acquired. Hut even tho unearned
fortune may be made to servo a
great purpose In its possessor's
scheme of happiness if he lias a
8chemo and that Is practically the
wholo mutter. It is the niinlessness,
tho Idleness of tho rich that brings
discontent and its attendant ills.
And along with tho Internal dis
orders that arise from lack of
worthy purpose, is a constantly in
creasing public resentment toward
vast fortunes.
This public attltudo is not hard
to understand. Tliero Is moro and
moro Insistence on tho question,
"How did ho got It," and for the
Tory simple reason that most of the
very big fortunes have been made by
"Jobbing" tho people In one way
or another they largely represent
tribute, lognl or Illegal, but essen
tially Immoral, essentially dangerous
to tho equilibrium of wealth and tho
social order. Tho peoplo do not
resont honest wealth, if It is em
ployed to a purpose If Us benefi
ciaries do not use It merely for the
financing of lavish and spectacular
Idleness, for tho opulent display of
a wholly assumed superiority.
Wealth that Is not possessed with a
sense of responsibility, that is not
employed in sonio one of the many
directions that opons opportunities
for accomplishment other than that
of mere accumulation is less to be
desired than moro competence. A
multl-mllliomiiro whoso chief aim Is
to drlvo tho best four-ln-hand that
money will buy or to glvo tho must
lavish dinners that can bo prepared
is not inviting admiration or hap
piness. If ho cares for either ho
must do something worth while
worth while to the public in well
ns to himself. Such a purposo t.iul
effort necessarily bring him in touch
with tho currents of huni'iul y -a
necessary contiguity If a life 1j to
be nuulo worth tho living.
Breathes there a man with soul so
dead,
Who never to himself hath said:
"Tomorrow morning I will rise
Before the sun lights up the skies.
"I'll set this clock so It will ring
Before the birds begin to sing;
Its strident bell will me awake,
An early morning walk I'll take."
And when at an ungodly hour
Next morn, the clock with all its
power
Made noise enough to stir the dead,
And woke the man upon the bed
Breathes there a man I now repeat,
Who wouldn't chuck it in the street,
And back Into the bed then leap,
And with a sigh go off to sleep?

HIS ARGUMENTS WITH MURPHY.
Tho late Francis Murphy, temper- j
ance advocate had many an adven-1
ture in the course of his very useful
life.
He once told of a case in which a
man got a little the better of him in
an argument.
The man was a clubman, a gen
erous liver, famous for his wine
cellar; and MK Murphy read him a
strong lecture on the drink evil.
But the bon vlvant only smiled.
shook his head and said: ,
"Well, Mr. Murphy, I have seen I
many a pleasant party around a
table, but have never seen one
around a pump."

"Look, here, did you catch these

asked a Coos Bay wife of hubby

"Really, m'dear, I didn't taste it,"
and this ended the discussion.
KEENE'S FINANCIAL JEST.
James R. Keene told this story il
lustrative of "high finance" at the
Waldorf the other night:
A Kentucky darky negotiated a
loan for ?10 from a local banker,
pledging his mule and cart as secur
ity. "Money is pretty tight," explained
the banker, "and I shall have to
charge you $2.50 for the use of
the $10 for a month."
Tho darky consented, signed the
papers, and half an hour later was
found by a friend standing in the
road scratching his wool with one
hand and looking ruefully at the
57.50 in his other.
"W'ts de matter, Sam?" asked the
friend.
"Oh, dere ain't nothing de matter,
cept I knows I'se right. Dat bank
man he done charge mo $2.50 for
$10 for a month. I'se right, suh,
fo' if I had a ast fo' de ten fo' foali
imonths I wouldn't a got nothing.' "

"Dow, I would bo glad to handle
(SOUND RING FLOUR), but you
sell it to every merchant and adver
tise the retail price so. I can't get
as much per sack as I do for
Hour. Give mo the exclusive sale
and I will drop all other brands."
Now What Do You Think of That?
Tills nun handles a brand of flour
that costs 10c. per barrel less than
Sound Ring and other brands of
Hour of equal grade nnd has tho
nerve to cluirgo 10 cents moro per
sack.
REMEMBER.
If you pay moro than $1.10 per
sack for the best grades of Washing

Dumas and the Thermometer.
One day when Dumas pore was man
ager of the Theatre Illstorlque ho hap
pened to meet an old friend whom be
had not seen for thirty years.
"Where are you going to dine to
night?" lie asked the friend.
"Tonight I shall dine nowhere," was
the answer.
"Oh, no." said Dunins; "you are mis-,
taken. You will dine with me." And
lie led the friend Into his house and
ff.ivo him tho upper place at his table.
Evidently the poor man had not had
Kiieh n dinner for a long time. So the
generous hearted Dumas at the end of
"Mie meal casually remarked:
"It Is a matter of course that I ex
pect you tomorrow nt the same time."
The friend eame the next day and
the day after this, and so on for ten
years up to Ills death. One day he
told Dumas that as he was eating
bread that he did not earn this ar
rangement could not continue.
"If I am not able honestly to earn
my meals, I shall not come again. Toll
me In what way I can bo of service to
ou."
Dumas thought a moment, then said:
"You can do me a great favor. Yon
may go to the new bridge every day
and take the temperature by Cheva
lier's thermometer. The temperature,
you must know, Is of great moment In
tho matter of the sale of tickets. Could
yon do this?"
The poor fellow answered affirma
tively and from that time on reported
to Dumas every day:
"At noon the thermometer showed so
and m many degrees in the shade."
And Dumas, who of course did not
care In the least about the tempera
ture, replied with tho sumo regularity:
"l am very much obliged. If you
only knew what a service you aro do
ing mo!" Harper's.
